Identified Challenges in Existing Media Website Infrastructure

The existing website lacks user-centric design and has an outdated CMS with limited functionality, leading to increased manual work for content management and suboptimal user engagement. The client aims to modernize their platform to provide an engaging, stylish, and highly responsive user experience that aligns with contemporary media trends and technological standards.

  • Increase overall user engagement and brand perception through improved UI/UX.
